Horseshoe Bend

Hoseshoe Bend
If you are driving through Page in Arizona then Horseshoe Bend is somewhere that you have to take an hour out of your day to view... Here are my top 6 tips for visiting Horseshoe Bend. 
  1. Horseshoe bend is a huge tourist attraction and when I visited there were at least 3 coaches full of people on top of the regular day trippers and passers by... My tip is to make sure you avoid midday when the bend seems busiest and when its most hot 
  2. There is no shade on the path and it gets very hot so make sure you are prepared.
  3. There is a small car park, however it is not essential that you use this! If there is a queue to get in or if it looks a little tight on space park on the road just before or after the entrance.
  4. There is a small 1.25 mile round trip hike from the car park to the viewing point which is up a small sandy hill so comfortable footwear my personal tip
  5. Be careful!! There is no barriers and pure sheer drops so make sure you are paying extra attention to your feet if you are trying a daring selfie or mastering the perfect Facebook profile picture. 
  6. Horseshoe bend is exactly as you see it. 90 minutes of your day is probably more than enough to walk, take pictures, enjoy the view and hike back..... ​

When I got back to my car I was looking for something to do to fill the time until my tour around Antelope Canyon and en-route to the Glen Canyon Dam I stumbled across this little gem of a hike 'The Hanging Garden Trail'

WorldHikingVlog, Hiking the Grand Canyon
Who needs Zebra crossings when you have an Elk crossing?
The Grand Canyon, one of the seven natural wonders of the world and somewhere I just had to visit especially considering before visiting the Grand Canyon I had only been to Victoria Falls!! So it's now two down and five to go!

I arrived at the Grand Canyon on day 4 of my most recent American road trip after a doing a big night in Las Vegas and a 2 day hike across Havasu Falls so needless to say my energy levels were not at their highest by the time I reached the park. That being said its the Grand Canyon and the excitement levels were sky high!

Here is my experience of my day viewing the Grand Canyon

Mooney Falls
My last Vlog/Blog was about hiking into Havasu Falls  and the beauty that awaits when you get there. 

Well guess what? It gets even better!!! Beaver Falls, Mooney Falls & Havasu Creek take you away from earth as you know it and take you to a place of beauty you can only dream of..

Now Unfortunately when booking my camping in Havasupai I only booked one night and by the time I realised my mistake the following night had sold out! This meant I had to try and do all my exploring in one day which by all means was very tough but was so worth it as the sights that great you between Havasu Falls and Beaver Falls are truly out of this world!

USA Road Trip - Vegas to Vancouver with Mount Tallac Review

31/5/2016

Mount Tallac, Lake Tahoe, World Hiking Vlog
Lake Tahoe View, World Hiking Vlog
Date May 2016 
Location Las Vegas to Vancouver via Mammoth Lakes, Lake Tahoe, Crater Lake, Portland & Seattle 
Who  Matthew Coleman, Martin Spencer, Myself & Carl McCloskey (In order of appearance on the video), all old colleague mates.

After 3 nights in Vegas a road trip up to Vancouver seemed like the best thing to do 


Over the course of 2 and a half weeks we were lucky enough to hike around Mammoth Lakes, Fallen Leaf Lake, Lake Tahoe, Mount Tallac and Crater Lake 

This was the first time I ever used a GoPro which is fairly obvious when you see the shaky camera, constant footage of my knuckles and random transfers from my wrist to hand.... I also produced this with a free version of Animoto hence the horrible banners on the side....

That all being said the hiking was beautiful with literally no one to be seen for miles

Check out the video below for our trip highlights
